Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.
1. A pair of reviewer-belovedย The Gym People joggers, which have a tapered design and a stretchy waistband that'll probably make them one of the most reached-for pieces in your closet. And let's not forget the side pockets. ๐
Promising reviews: "I love these pants! I have several pairs and a few different colors. I wear them to the gym, errands, and for lounging. I have both mediums and larges, depending on how I'm feeling on the day. I honestly wear these so much that I consider them to be somewhat of a 'uniform,'ย a staple for a grab and go, cute but casual and put together outfit." โPam
"I LOVE THEM!ย I heard on TikTok thatย these pants were [like Lululemon] and I believe it!ย They are so well made and SO soft I got more after I tried on the first pair. I have bigger thighs so I was worried about the leggings looking too tight but they we awesome, maybe just a bit loose on the calves for me but otherwise AMAZING." โKklunker
Get them from Amazon for $28.99+ (available in sizes XSโXXL and in 16 colors).
2. A pair ofย seamless scrunch leggingsย that'll hug your lower body *just* right. ๐ These come with a high waistband for ultimate comfort and material that gives you the perfect combination of softness and stretchiness.
Promising review: "I found these through TikTok and bought a pair ASAP! The Alphalete ones are around $70 and the reviews for these on TikTok were amazing so I was quick to buy a pair! They are pretty similar to the Alphalete ones as well, but seem a bit thicker which I prefer and have a tiny bit bigger scrunch. They are super stretchy too so if youโre between sizes, go for the smaller size! They also came a lot faster than expected, so now Iโm back to buy more colors and am super excited!" โNichole
Get them from Amazon forย $25.99+ (available in sizes XSโXL and in dozens of colors and multipacks).
3. Or a pair of breathableย high-waisted leggingsย with moisture-wicking, fleece-lined material that might just make it easier for you to convince yourself to get your workout in during this chilly time of year. They also have a hidden waistband pocket!
Check them out on TikTok.
Promising review: "I bought this pair of leggings initially so I could have something warm and comfortable to wear while working at home that wasn't just a pair of sweatpants โย they ended up becoming a staple of my workout wardrobe too! I ended up getting two more pairs in the no-pocket style so I can cycle through them during the week for my outdoor walks/runs. Fit-wise, if you're not looking for something super-snug, I'd suggest going a size up. The legs are a little long on me, but I'm short (5'1") and I'm used to things being a little long on me. My only gripe about these is that the side pocket isn't anywhere near big enough to hold my phone, but I've got a huge phone, so I'm used to it not fitting in pockets easily. Long story short: I love these, and if you're looking for warm leggings, either for working out or for lounging around the house, you should get a pair of these." โBeth Lynn Nolen
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes XSโ3XL, in 24 colors, and in two different pocket options).
4. Aย lightweight cropped jacket, because who said a workout outfit can't look effortlessly stylish? With thumbholes, sleek material, and a curved hemline, you'll be looking too good *not* to show off at the gym.
Promising reviews: "This is one of the viral TikTok jackets and it is very figure-fitting and cute. Has good stretch. I got an XL because Iโm busty. Fits perfect and will also be cute with tights or slim fit jeans." โAmazon Customer
"I do indoor cycling and the room is usually very cold when we get in, I needed something light, and colorful but not bulky. This is the perfect lightweight workout jacket! The fabric feels high quality and the design is beautiful." โPatricia Ibarra
Get it from Amazon for $23.90 (available in sizes XSโXXL and in 13 colors).
5. Or aย full length slim-fit jacketย for the perfect super soft layer of warmth. This one's got pockets (!) and is made of thick, stretchy material. See ya at pilates!
Promising reviews: "I saw on TikTok this was a Lulemon dup so I had to try it. Overall it fits nicely. I highly recommend this jacket." โAngela_SDG
"Buttery soft! I donโt have the exact Lululemon sweater but I believe this is as close as it gets! Itโs such a nice and soft material, keep me warming during the whole time Iโm wearing it. And it fits perfectly. So glad I got this instead of paying for the branded one which cost double. Highly recommended!!" โMay Chubbi
Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in sizes XSโXL and in 18 colors).
6. A pair of super cuteย flared leggingsย that many reviewers are comparing to the beloved Aerie ones!ย They're made of buttery soft material and have a crossover waistband to accentuate your figure. Talk about an elegant upgrade to your workout ensemble. ๐
Check them out on TikTok.
Promising review: "Click buy now. Just do it. You are gonna want these in black and maybe every other color too. After wearing them a few times, I am hooked and very confident when I say that YOU WANT THESE! Even if you are on the fence and not overly impressed as soon as you open the package, just put them on. Walk around for a little bit, maybe walk past your significant other (or a full-length mirror), and hear the praise! Then, you will understand!! These are confidence-boosting and booty essentials! I need more!" โBriar
Get them from Amazon for $28.99+ (available in sizes XSโXXL, four inseam styles, and 23 colors).
7. A flexibleย cropped tank with a padded braย because it has over 40,000 5-star ratings and a lightweight, moisture-wicking power fabric that's perfect for your next yoga sesh (or to pair with your favorite jeans for a casual sunny day).
I tried this tank out for the first time a couple of years ago (that's me in the first pic shown above!) and when I tell you I have bought almost every. single. color. I am not exaggerating. It's the perfect versatile essential to have in your wardrobe. Do size up though!
Check it out on TikTok.
Promising reviews:ย "I first bought it in black and absolutely loved it! Ordered two more in white and burnt red. As other reviews said, size up. I am 5'3" 120 lbs 32D with an athletic build. Medium fit perfectly and sits right above my belly button. I probably could have gone with a small, but wanted it to fit a little longer. I plan to use these when working out and for daily use in the summer. Also they're super soft! Loved this quality much more over my Lululemon Align tops." โClaudia
Get it from Amazon forย $22.99ย (available in sizes SโXXL and 22 colors).
8. Or a long line sports bra with a classic V-neckline. It's made of sweat-wicking fabric and goes with, well, anything! Pair it with your fave biker shorts or leggings and you'll be able to go straight from your errand-packed morning to your afternoon spin class.
This sports bra/top combo comes with all the functional features you'd like: removable pads, a comfy and stretchy design, and fabric that won't leave you feeling like a sweat puddle during workouts.
Check it out on TikTok.
Promising review:ย "I never, never, never, leave reviews on products, but with this one, it's well worth it and I haven't even worked out in it yet! I'm a 36DD (I ordered a large for reference), so finding a good supportive sports bra can be a bit difficult to find. I found this one the way a Gen Z'er does:ย TikTok. This sports bra can even double as a tank top if you're running from the gym to get coffee or to home, so it's absolutely perfect! It's such a cute top and I can't wait to see how well it supports my workouts! I bought it in dusty blue and I'll be back for more of the colors!" โRobertย
Get it from Amazon for $22.99 (available in women's sizes XSโ3XL and 14 colors).
9. A stretchy pair ofย extra high-rise compressive leggings, aka your new favorite leggings for high-impact workouts! And here's a bonus โ they're sustainable and made from 79% recycled plastic bottles.
Check them out on TikTok.
Promising review: "Do ittt. These leggings are a staple. Versatile enough to wear out and/or to work out in. They hold everything in, stay up, and are squat proof. ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ I have pairs in six colors, so, safe to say Iโm a fan." โStacey N.
Get them from The Girlfriend Collective for $78 (available in sizes XXSโ6XL, three lengths, and 10 colors).
10. A pair of high-waistedย squat-proof biker shortsย that feature two side pockets and super soft, flexible material for maximum mobility.ย Perfect to pair with an oversized hoodie, sports bra, or a cute cropped tank! Plus, they come in different inseam length options and colors.

Promising reviews: "Okay, I found this brand through TikTok lol. She claimed it was as good as Lululemon. SO I had to order a pair! I received on time, fits like butter. Super soft, not see through. SQUAT PROOF! Yes! I immediately order a second pair. Awesome price point too!" โMaribel
"Oh, I love these biker shorts! I am not somebody that has typically worn biker shorts in the past, and this was one of the first pairs that I purchased. I think that these are very high-quality for the price. The material is very soft, but it is not see-through and the shorts stay in place during my workouts. I have since bought these biker shorts in about six different colors." โMadi R.
Get them from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in sizes XSโXXL, three inseam styles, and 18 colors).
11. Or a pair of moisture-wickingย high-rise biker shortsย with *hidden* pockets and an array of fun pattern options. These offer a little extra compression, and will have you reaching for them for gym days and beyond!
After reading all the positive reviews for these bike shorts, I decided to buy a pair and put them to the test. They're SO COMFY compared to other compressive activewear. I've worn them for treadmill runs and not once did I have to pull them up at the waist or adjust them around my thighs. If you'd like to switch up your activewear outfit with something that's not leggings, I highly recommend these!
Check them out on TikTok.ย
Promising review: "I have never really been a fan of bike shorts until now! I saw this pair onย TikTokย and I thought they were so cute. I ran to the comments for the details and ordered them right away. When I received them they looked exactly like the picture and have a very nice, soft fabric for working out. They have become my new favorite shorts. I definitely recommend them!" โJasmine
Get them from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in women's sizes XSโXXL, in sets of two, and in 15 colors and patterns).

They're made with minimal interior seaming and are lined with supportive foam inserts so that your feet can kiss those painful blisters and midday discomfort goodbye.
Prime members: You canย try before you buy!
Promising reviews:ย "New Balance is my go-to brand. They fit well, and are comfortable to walk in. They're the one brand I can wear that truly fits my wide feet; they're study, and hold up to constant wear. This particular pair is a double-winner - the expected high quality product, and I got a huge discount for buying a 'used, like new' pair from Amazon. They're in mint condition, and were packaged well. Glad I went for the sale!" โKnitting Granma
"Actually saw these in a TikTok and came right here to buy them. Iโve been wearing these sneakers for two months now and had to come back to leave a review. I love them! I wear them almost every morning on my 2-mile walk. They are very cute and comfy." โTaryn

Check it out on TikTok.
Promising review: "Amazing quality, really thick material โ the black is not see through which I was concerned about! I would say size up as I'm usually an XS but the S fits me perfectly, it is figure-fitting rather than loose." โGeorgia

Check it out on TikTok.
Promising review: "I bought these to work out and cycle in and just wear around the house. I bought the mid-length style and I really love wearing them. They offer support, but not like a bra. They also donโt poke or feel binding like a bra. They donโt roll up and they are a nice weight. They donโt feel wet even when I'm sweating. They also dry quickly. I actually bought three sets of them so I would have color options and not have to wash them so much. I take them camping and I find myself wearing them in a variety of situations. I will absolutely replace them if and when I need to!" โAJ
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $28.98 (available in sizes XSโXXL and in dozens of styles, fits, and colors).

Promising reviews: "Bought as a joke, but had hopes it would do as TikTok said. The material is comfortable and not too sheer. If you wear like hot pink undies, you're gonna see them if you're doing a squat, but otherwise not too sheer. Was very comfortable and holds up after been washed a few times so far. And finally, does make the booty like, amazing. Heads up though, you should wear a thong and pull them up a little higher than usual for the TikTok effect. Otherwise, very happy with my pants :)" โAmazon Customer
"Guys, I kid you not. These are the best textured leggings. The material is PERFECT. Clings onto your legs so good. The sizing is very accurate. Definitely worth the purchase. I will be buying more colors and sports bras to go with these!"ย โLyanne

Check out a TikTok of the FlipBelt in action!ย
Promising review: "Love, love, love my FlipBelt. I cannot stand arm bands so for the past year, I have been running while holding my phone (I know, awful). I was running with my coworker and she suggested I get a running belt. Having run a couple of half marathons in the past, I have used running belts but they tend to bounce around and just be an annoyance. I happened to stumble on the FlipBelt on Amazon and had to give it a try. It fits my iPhone 7 that has an OtterBox on it, and did not budge once during my 6-mile run. At the 4-mile mark, I even tried adjusting it because I thought there's no way this thing is staying in place so well, and it was still in the exact same spot as when I started my run. I also noticed I was able to run faster than usual and I think it's because I wasn't concentrating on holding my phone with its massive case on it. If you're in between sizes, I suggest going a size down. Can't wait to wear this for my upcoming half-marathons in the fall!" โkel07
Get it from Amazon for $34+ (available in XXSโXXL and 13 colors).
21. Aย high ponytail running capย because if you want to rock a high pony while having your face be shielded from the sun at the same time, then you should be able to!

Promising review: "This is the most comfortable piece of clothing I've put on my body. I'm only 4"11 and this fit so perfectly!
